ABOUT ME

Welcome to my blog!
I work with ceramics making both large, and small scale pieces, which range from functional wares to sculptures. My work can be found in public places and in the homes of private clients. Since 1996 I have been focused on designing and making unique Swedish tiled stoves which are both sculptural and energy efficient. I combine tradition with technology and create unique hybrids.
My ceramics are formed into soft, billowing, asymetrical shapes, which utilize waving lines to achieve an organic balance. I mix strong colours with clear, deep, shiny glazes set in contrast to slips with matt surfaces.
Craftmanship is at the heart of everything I make. Each piece is made by hand with care, with great care.
